Bring Me Up Lyrics
I was quiet
I was tired
and I wanted you to bring me up.
(I wanted you to make it stop,
I wanted you to bring me up.)
You were wrong
and I was right
and I wanted yuo to bring me up.
(Mmm, you know me well,
this is something that I shouldn’t have to tell you.)
We shared humidity, and orange roses,
and poking fun at all our friends.
They have their barbecues, and we have our arguments;
we never can agree.
You said, "When you don’t talk you take it out on me."
I was quiet
I was tired
and I wanted you to bring me up.
You were wrong
and I was right
and I wanted you to bring me up.
We took a ride on our motorbike.
I couldn’t talk to you, but my arms were wrapped
around you tight.
We stopped at Smokey’s, parked the bike outside.
So scared to be sad, to keep the tears in I looked up at the sky
and took another ride.
But I was quiet
and I was tired
and I wanted you to bring me up.
You were wrong
and I was right
and I wanted you to bring me up.
We have us.
Is that enough?
What is it worth to you?
We have us.
Is it enough?
and what is it worth to you?
You said,"It’s worth everything, hey baby, take a look.
It’s worth all the pennies in my pocketbook."
But I was quiet
and I was tired
and I wanted you to bring me up.
Yeah I was quiet
and I was tired
and I wanted you to bring me up.
So I was wrong
and you were right.
Bring me home.
I was tired
and I wanted you to bring me up.
(I wanted you to make it stop,
I wanted you to bring me up.)

it's miscommunication in a relationship. She telling her boyfriend that he should know he needs to help her/fix her/bring her up. she's not saying it, but she's expecting it, and wishes he could read her mind, but it's impossible. It's her fault they're on a downhill, because she can't communicate
I love the lines, We shared humidity, and orange roses, and poking fun at all our friends.
It's the little common things, memories that make little sense to other people. we all have them in every relationship
They pull up their chairs to the table She stares at the food on her plate At the toast and the butter, her father and mother, She pushes away
And they rise in the morning And they sleep in the dark And even though nobody's looking She's falling apart The first two lines are saying how they live and sleep like normal people, but theres a ssecret, and the girls falling apart
She gets home from school too early And closes the door to her room There's nothing inside her (either food, or her soul) She's weak and she's tired of feeling like this
And they rise in the morning And they sleep in the dark And even though nobody's looking She's falling apart
They call her for dinner, she makes up a reason She looks at her arms and she rolls down her sleeves( shes got cuts on her arm and shes getting thinner) And her mother is starting to see through her lies And last night her father had tears in his eyes ( hes upset beause of her)
And they rise in the morning And they sleep in the dark And even though nobody's looking She's falling apart
And we rise in the morning And we sleep in the dark And even though nobody's looking She's falling apart ( we all mind are own bussiness and are friends are falling and we never notice)
